Part of the problem as you get more rural is the distribution centers end up being co-ops between established players(more of a US thing, see associated grocers who were a co-op that won't allow new players to join as competition) or straight monopolies for very large swaths. You'd need to recreate that whole system, not just the stores themselves. That or break them up.

We could take steps to expand an already National and will developed logistics service that is currently in need of new expanded revenue in order to establish supply chains to more places and quicker.

Canada Post could pivot from just being mail and some parcels to also transporting groceries to local public supermarkets.

But really prices were low when there were more Crown Corps and less mega corps. Lots of people refuse to appreciate that fact though.
